I just did an exchange with poisondartfrog for some Artemisa Limelight. It was a nice clump of roots as she told me it would be. It even had nice healthy green sprouts popping up. I was very happy with it and the way it was packaged. She shipped it very fast too! Thanks Alana!

Alana is awesome! Not only did she send me a GREAT assortment in the "make new friends robin", but also sent me a very nice "packing slip" that described the plants that was very helpful to me in deciding where to plant them. She's a super sweet person with a great attitude, great packaging skills, and very generous trades. I would highly recommend trading with her. Thanks Alana!

Alana is the greatest! We've had several trades and I'd responded to one of her plant posts recently. I hadn't heard back but found a surprise in my mailbox a few days later! That was so thoughtful and extremely generous. Thanks so much : )

Alana said she would send me a cutting of a shrub I had always wanted. She didnt want to trade. She just said she would send it to me. She didnt send a cutting. But she sent a nice, healthy rooted start! We have traded before and she has always been generous. She is truly an asset to gardenweb! Darla

I forgot to post when I rec'd a wonderful box of daylilies from Alana! She sent beautiful large plants. I have also had many seed trades with her and she always sends right out! Which I am a little slow at times! LOL! But she still trades with me and I love to trade with her! Melinda

Alana always sends the best and most interesting seeds!! she has one of the most generous hearts that i know of!! i just love trading with Alana!! one of these day's i will have something most interesting to give her!! LOL Thank you so much!!~Medo

Alana is one of the sweetest people here. She goes out of the way for other people never thinking of herself. She is one of the best. Thanks so much for the carefully thought out seeds. A big hug from WI Barb

awwwwe thank you so much!! i must say that Alana is one of the most best awesome people!! that heart is HUGE!!! she always sends the neatest stuff!! and when you get seeds, you know that she is "thinking" when she sends them. she once told me that when she sends me the seeds, she sent the ones because they were the ones she thought of me,, something like that. i liked that, it meant she actually thought about me. :') this time she sent seeds for talla's fairy garden, but it was so cool because if you think about it, it could let LOTs of fairy's sleep in them!! talla was so happy about that!! that's what she saw, and she said your friends are SOOOO nice!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH Alana!!! you are the BOMB!!!! ((((HUGS)))) ~Medo

Alana sent me a lovely daylily as part of a "make up" for a Round Robin swap where another member was to have sent a box to me, but didn't. It's very sweet of Alana to participate in making that up to me :) even though it wasn't her and she wasn't required to.

I contacted Alana about some seeds a swap partner of mine was particularly wanting. She offered to send them to me. I received the package yesterday and it contained an extra package of the seeds for me to keep as well as lots of other extras that I'd been interested in!Alana is a wonderful trader, communicates very well and is a wonderful Garden Buddy to have!

I can't believe I haven't posted to this rate & review! Trading with Alana was a wonderful experience: she is generous and prompt and I love her packaging! Would trade with her anytime--we are actually in the midst of our second one now! Thanks, Alana!

I just completed a trade with her and she is awesome! She sends everything promptly, well packaged, and includes everything you ask for along with bonuses! Thanks so much, Alana, for making my first trade on GW a great one!

Alana sent me some cup and saucer seeds, i have really wanted these forever, mine keep dying, LOL we are in the secret santa round robin, she is only one of the most awesome friend!! Thank you Alana!!! ~Medo

Just received a RR Secret Santa card from her with wonderful cosmos seashell seeds and a very pretty seed envelope. Thank you; they will make a great addition to my garden. Hope you have many blooms in your garden. And I hope to trade with you in the future.

I also received AWESOME seeds and a great card from Alana via the Secret Santa swap! :D
She sent me Rose Queen Salvia,which I have been wanting badly for over a year now!!!!Thanks so much Alana,you're the best!!! :D

Thanks, Alana for supporting a newbie with no seeds in the blackjack 21/21 seed swap. It was very generous of you. If she can be this sweet to a stranger, just think how nice she'll be in person!

Joined the PP RR group last month and received a wonderful box of well packed goodies from Alana. Everything came as described and there were even some extras:) Definitely would trade with her again. Thank you for your generosity.

What can I say about Alana,lol?! She is great! Always nice and helpful, even with my silly questions (I should add patient as well). She has a great sense of humor and responds quickly to emails. Always sends seeds nicely packed and labeled and ships quickly. I always enjoy bugging her and hope to do more trades with her in the future. Great trader! Thanks again poisonfroggydart, lol. :) Jennifer

Just received some wonderful named daylily seeds from her and she even sent bonus seeds! :-) Communication was great and all was shipped well. Will gladly trade with her in the future! :-) Thank you bunches Alana!! :-)

Had an excellent trade experience with her. I would have no reservations trading with her again and look forward to it in the future.
By the number of positive posts here she is obviously highly regarded on GW. I am impressed.

Alana hosted the WLOMWL (What's Left On My Wish List) Swap. She did an amazing job keeping us all organized, sorting seeds and surprising us with some amazing picks!! Just wanted to say THANK YOU for all your hard work :) Happy Blooms! vina

I just received my great package for the No Place Like Home Swap from Alana, and I was really impressed! Lots of plants, nice size and healthy, packaged very well-what a generous gift! Thanks Alana, would definitely like to trade again!
Shirley!

Just completed a wonderful trade with Alana. She sent me a generous amount of cuttings, so well-packaged they look like they were just cut a few minutes ago. :) A pleasure to trade with, for sure, all around. Thanks Alana!

i just got my round robin box from Alana and boy she went out of her way to put plants in it that were on my want list how thoughtful of her, if you get a chance to trade with her do so , you will get a great box,

Alana (and I love your username and your real name) sent me Lauren's Purple Poppy seeds and a very gracious amount of them. They came inside a poinsettia Christmas card in the Secret Santa Swap. Nicely done. You made my day.

For this year's Round Robin "Secret Santa Seed Swap" Alana sent a wonderful card and White Valerian seeds. She has always been a valued, conscientious, involved member of our GW community and can never be recommended too highly, in my opinion! "Major thanks, Alana!"

Alana was one of my secret santas in the Secret Santa Seed Swap. She sent well packaged ornamental gourd seed that I have been wanting in a pretty Christmas card. Thank you for being so generous.

I just wanted to thank Alana for the card and marigold seeds she sent for the Secret Santa Swap. She takes the time to search out what you really meant to say!

And, I want to also thank her for hostessing the FOTESS September swap. Should have done this before. Her theme was Johnny Appleseed, very nicely done and thought provoking! Alana, you did a great job and I'm sorry to be posting this SO late!
Shirley!

Many thanks to Alana for sending a pretty card and peony flowered poppies--I can't wait to plant these! This was for the Secret Santa Swap. She is also a serious wrapper-took me awhile to get the card open it was so secure.

Alana, uber thanks for the Christmas/Winter Solstice card and fab seeds for this year's 5th annual (my 3rd) "Secret Santa Seed Swap"! You are always so very generous when it comes to trading, and equally generous when it comes to giving! Bless you and yours this coming year, and wishing you marvelous, satisfying gardening! :)

Just rec'd a fabulous box in the birthday bash swap! She went way above and beyond ! Loved the gifts and great seeds she sent! I've traded with her several times before and she is always a pleasure to recieve from! Thanks Alana!

Alana was a terrific member is The Plant Hoarders Plant Swap Round Robin. She was generous and sent to her partner in a timely member. She is a valued member of gardenweb and hope to be in future swaps together in the future. Thanks, Alana

I once mentioned to poisondartfrog that if her white canna were ever to cough up a few seeds, I would love to have a couple, and then I promptly forgot all about it. Well, lo and behold, a box shows up near our mailbox, and in it were some very healthy, plump, good-sized tubers of white and apricot cannas with a festive note-card and crumpled newspaper to prevent the tubers from rattling around during transit.

I cannot recommend poisondartfrog enough as a trader (and maybe someday swap hostess), and she will widen your horticultural horizons to boot.

Once again praises for Alana, great and fun hostess of Scared my Pants Off Halloween RR , caring to make sure we all receive our likes, sent me her beautiful daylilies among other goods, cant wait til spring, got to love her...need to send her something eventually.
